Father-son combo a hit for Tar Heels

Posted Jun 4, 2009
North Carolina's baseball team had just wrapped up the ACC's Coastal Division regular-season title, and redshirt freshman Tarron Robinson couldn't resist sending his dad a good-natured text. "We've got a championship," he thumbed before boarding the plane home from Boston. "You want to impress me?" responded Steve Robinson, assistant coach of the basketball Tar Heels. "Go ahead and win the College World Series." (Raleigh News & Observer)
